This is nothing new, Randy. They have had tournaments during the spawn forever. So you are ok with sight fishing for these bedding fish, but to hell with using FFS to catch bedding fish. What you should be bitching about is the whole 5 fishing weigh-in tournament fishing. Everyone should be doing is catch weigh and release.
Scott Martin Did It Last Year
Bass should be protected during the spawn obviously ,im wondering when BASS is just gonna start giving em 5 sticks of dynamite obviously the main focus is the MONEY, not the fish .
Does not matter what anyone did a year or more ago. What matters is going forward. If you fish in the spring your likely to catch spawning bass. Trying to entice a visible to the human eye bass is one thing, using high end electronics is like being a sniper. I also feel that Bassmaster should be 100% immediate weigh & release for all of its tournaments. Keeping a large female fish for hours in a live well is not good. We can do better!
It’s all about money Mr. Randy. That’s what everything is about. The show and money. It’s the way the world has been molded.
.
East Tn fishermen here. I’m a local tournament fisherman on South Holston, Boone and Watauga. I also fish Cherokee and Douglas on occasion. I have personally seen the effects of ffs on these lakes. This is surly gonna take its toll on all lakes I’m afraid.
I’m boycotting B.A.S.S. so no I didn’t watch. Only thing I saw was a video of Kyle Welcher catching a 10 pounder.
Forward facing sonar saves money. Now you don’t have to run all over the lake. Just drop your trolling motor and go scoping. It’s get your bag limit quickly and back to the house to enjoy a nice fish fry.
Is every video on this channel going to bash FFS?
I'll never be using that crap anyway its way out of my price range. But i really love the excitement of tossing a worm at a log and not knowing what's there. I mean that's fun of it all.
Ban tourneys held during the spawn. Sight fishing with or without FFS should be banned. You are blaming FFS for something you participate in sight fishing. Same thing happens without FFS.
I guess just do away with all depth finder’s and trolling motors too huh??

Being an ex-resident of Elizabeth City and an avid angler of the Pasquotank River it really made me sick at what they were doing. I don't like FFS anyway but this just really hit home for me. Couldn't believe it!!!
I've listened to u bitch for over 20 years about bed fishing…its obvious that our bass population is 10 fold of what it used to be…even on Lake Erie smallies . Do people have a pod cast because they need attention…Jesus help us..I've already quit tic tok, Instagram so I don't have to listen to all the winers
Just quit fishing and start a sewing circle so you can bitch about that to.
I’m gonna go ahead and say if you are NOT finding what Welcher is doing to these other anglers this week on the Pasquotank exciting as shit, you either 1) have no pulse are and next to death. 2) are unable to actually process what is actually happening. This is AH-MAZING
Your just mad causee you dont understand it and cant use it great
I totally agree with you Randy. Absolutely should not have tournaments during the spawn. Death rate percentage of bass caught then released after weigh in is extremely high. Surely, with the technology we have now, we can come up with a way to measure and weigh the fish and then immediately release. This would tremendously help survival rate. Tournaments should be the biggest advocate for our fisheries. But obviously, by their lack of self governance, they are not.
FFS should be eliminated from tournaments. If not completely outlawed.
Scott martin did it last year to win ochochobee.its called perspective mode
MLF is the way to go especially with bedding fish im sure they just killed a ton of those big mommas what a dam shame keep doing what you're doing Randy fighting the good fight ive been watching you from the beginning
Bass tournaments are a joke, and killing bass fishing , Putting Fish in live wells and running around all day with your hair on fire around the lake while that Fish is bouncing around and in a livewell, That’s not fishing and that goes for site fishing as well
This guy is such an idiot our water is so dark you will never see a bass on bed so yes live sonar is a big player. Nobody likes you does it make you feel goood
Randy, you are absolutely correct. This is ridiculous for them to jerk bedding fish off their beds, run them across the lake to show them off is disgusting. Not only do they never return to their beds but the mortality rate for these fish isn’t good.
Bass master is a joke! How can any pro Fisher man or woman, say they are a professional!!! With all the electric video game garage on their boats, it's a dam shame, from California Delta River bass donkeys, no fish should be bought to the weight ins,,,, bass masters is a s***t show!!!!
Randy this so sad , pulling bass off the beds is all bad! And now FFS pulling off the beds
, then taking them to the weigh in, they will never make it back to the bed, the smart people in this world understand, that down the road it's hurting are fish produceing, money is the sign of the devil
,
Hello! Randy. Are you familiar with the Pasquotank River/Albemarie Sound Area in North Carolina? Bassmaster hasn't been here in 40 years. Makes you wonder why it took them so long to come back here?
I have live scope but I agree with you on bedding bass
Unless you’ve never sight fished for a bass on a bed, shut the hell up
The bass that use to be able to avoid pressure, have no where to hide. Cheater box has to go!
ABSOLUTELY NO SKILLS NEEDED TO WIN BASS…. Cheaters have DESTROYED OUR HOBBY and our fisheries with the use of FFS.
Kyle Welcher did pretty good at it today, 15 fish/90 pounds over 3 days is the reason. Good viewership for BASS. Not a good look for me.
I saw that… unbelievable… the leader took a 10 lber off a bed, put it in the live well… BASSMASTER has become the devil… they should penalize any angler taking them off beds, especially using FFS… the thing I at least like about MLF is catch ‘em, weigh ‘em, release ‘em
Like walking around the beach with a Metal Detector…
I dont agree with it either. BUT….
THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE LOOKING AT THEM WITH YOUR EYES OR THE GRAPH . ITS STILL BED FISHING !! MORE WHINY ASS CRYING FROM RANDY BLOWHARD !!
KYLE W JUST CAUGHT A 10 POUNDER OFF A BED….AND ON LIVE TV SAID I FOUND HER AND MISSED HER 2 TIMES..HE FOUND HER ON A BED WITH THE CHEATER BOX….NOW THAT BEAUTIFUL FISH IS TAKEN FROM ITS BED…..NO RESPECT FOR ANY OF THE FAKE PROS OR BASS…..THE FACT HE SAID HE FOUND HER RIGHT ON LIVE TV…..IF THAT DOESN’T MAKE BASS CHANGE THE RULES THIS SPORT WE LOVE WILL BE DONE….ITS ALREADY EFFECTING SO MANY LAKES NOW AND ONLY GETTING WORSE….
It's like having a 20 point buck in a fenced-in area and shooting till you hit it and brag about shooting a 20 pointer.
Bad as it gets
FFS to catch the deeper spawning bass! This is sad because the deeper spawning fish used to never get touched and had a high success rate reproducing. Seems like no bass is safe anymore. So so sad for bass fishing?
It's money that's all! These amoral scumbags only care about here and now because they ain't gonna have to deal with the out come! Insulated by mommy and Technology they have zero critical thinking skills!
Totally agree with you Randy!
Spring fishing, in general, is no different than hunting various animals in the rut or turkeys during their spring mating season. In a league that allows unlimited use of FFS, kudos to the guys that can use it to that extent to put 30 pound bags on the scales.
